2008 Year in Review

Northwestern Illinois Model Train Club Open House

An open house is planned at the Northwestern Illinois Model Train Club for Saturday March 29 and Sunday March 30, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. They have an “N” scale running on the main floor and “HO” scale running in the basement. The model train layouts are located at 101 Main Street, Chadwick, IL.

The Club was formed in January 2003 with an empty basement and 16 members. The club now has 30 members, and two different size-working layouts. The “HO” scale layout has 3 levels covering the entire 30’ x 60’ basement. The 30’ x 14’ “N” scale is growing in size with a yard and bridges it now takes up half of the main floor. The club would like to take this opportunity to show the model train layouts to the public. Enjoy your visit and make sure to sign the guest book. We are always welcoming new members to join and share their interest in trains.
